Poker Face: Flotsam

In the basement of the inn in Flotsam, look for some characters who are playing dice at a table. They're seated at a rectangular table near the wall. Talk to them and they'll express interest in seeing you play to attract the attention of more professional players.

(LEFT) 'The dice players are seated around a table in the tavern, near the wall.' (RIGHT) 'There are better prizes in store for you than just coin, if you insist upon them.'

Playing dice is a good way to eat up any oren that you may have earned or scavenged, but not necessarily to come away with anything of value. In general, it works about like the board game Yahtzee. You can roll your dice (gently, so that they fall within the play area and are counted) and then you can roll them again after placing an additional bet. Whoever has the most interesting set of dice wins. Note that you'll only re-roll any dice you specifically mark. Others will remain as they were.

When you win against the first two available opponents, you'll be able to play against a third in this room. Defeat him and he'll spread the word that you're a great dice player. You can now play against more skilled opponents who wait in areas other than the tavern. Your next opponent is Einar Gausel from the craftsmen's district. Head there, as indicated on the map, to find your opponent.

Defeat Einar Gausel at dice and you'll finally be able to face Sendler. He resides in a cottage in Lobinden, the village adjacent to Flotsam. Find him there and beat him at dice for a prize. You can reject his offer to pay you the coins and instead choose from one of three trap configurations that he will offer to build for you. After that, he'll offer only coins unless you come to him in the process of completing the side quest known as Troll Trouble.
